Summary
The Role
We’re recruiting for an Associate Product Manager here at Justice Digital, to be part of our warm and collaborative End User Compute Services (EUCS) team.
This role aligns against Associate Product Manager from the Government Digital and Data Framework.
In this role, you will bring experience in understanding assistive technologies (e.g., magnification, text to speech, organisational tools, and screen readers together with operating system-based accessibility tools) and have an awareness of testing, effective use strategies and quality assurance processes. You will help oversee checks, reviews, and template testing of assistive technology products and the efficient use of products, resources and training both current and future to meet user and organisational needs.
The EUCS team is part of Technology Services in Justice Digital, a modern and diverse workplace that promotes a healthy work-life balance and flexible working options. They design, deliver and support the core infrastructure and systems that enable End User Compute Services and line of business applications for over 100,000 Ministry of Justice users across over 800 locations.
Associate Product Managers champion the delivery and continuous improvement of products, working closely with more senior Product Leads to define, own and solve problems. They use their technical understanding, as well as knowledge of user needs and business goals to frame problems and help set priorities. They are responsible for developing the vision for a product or product subset, engaging teams and stakeholders in the development of that vision over time and help to manage a product through its life cycle. They may line manage other staff and support their professional development as well as be involved in recruitment.
This can be an ‘entry level’ role for people looking to progress into product management who have previous experience in technical roles.
These are exciting times at Justice Digital. We have a clear vision - to develop a digitally enabled justice system that works simply for its users - and we’re looking for enthusiastic, talented people to help us achieve it.
We’re making things better by building adaptable, effective services and making systems that are simple to use for staff and citizens. It can be challenging but it’s also important and rewarding. The role of Assistive Technologies and Accessibility plays a crucial role in this, and the associate product lead will provide input to various strands of this work.
As well as doing interesting work, we’re creating an environment that’s great to work in. We provide the opportunity to work with the latest technologies and offer brilliant training opportunities alongside support from expert colleagues. On top of that, you’ll find flexible working, an inclusive culture, and a place where your opinion is valued.
